You know, I remember these theaters...when younger (about 17-18), we'd sneak into a burlesque theater in downtown Minneapolis, Minnesota.

Then, when in my first year of college in Chicago, we would go to movie theaters downtown which still had the old organs, and live acts between shows. We saw Patti Page, Rudy Vallee, and many other great singers.

Wanted to - at last - say "hello" again. I have been too absent from most blogs latelely (although not striking), but I now took the time to go through your posts that I had missed, reminding me of my recent visit to your beautiful country!
